71 years ago, the Supreme Court ruled that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional.

After generations of struggle and sacrifice, the supreme law of the land finally bent toward hard-won justice.

Serial killer Glen Rogers' last words were "President Trump, keep making America great."

So he's still polling well with his core demographic.

Members of an immigrant family in Worcester, Massachusetts were targeted, terrorized, and seized by ICE agents this week.

The father was taken into custody by ICE on Wednesday, and agents returned to the family’s home Thursday to execute an arrest of the mother — without a warrant.

Worcester…

I'm getting really sick of @willbunch.bsky.social being right all the time:

It was absolutely the right call 7 years ago, and more so now, with nightly reports of violent raids gone awry, strip-searching tourists, and snatching student op-ed writers

not saying China doesn’t have a ton of structural problems as a global economic superpower but it is still punishingly funny that Trump and bunch of his MAGA deputies had psyched themselves into believing that in this kind of shambolic massive trade war, China wouldn’t immediately get the upper hand
Container bookings from China to the United States are nosediving.

Donald Trump is going after small donor fundraising platforms that support progressive candidates, because he knows that while he might have the billionaires, we have the people on our side.

I read a lot of court documents, and I like to highlight some from time to time that really encapsulate the moment we find ourselves in. The latest from the 4th Circuit does it perfectly.
